Survey of how scientists use computers

I'm forwarding this on behalf of a professor at the University of Toronto (Prof. Greg Wilson) who is doing research on how scientists use computers through a survey. See below and participate!

Computers are as important to modern scientists as test tubes,
but we know surprisingly little about how scientists develop
and use software in their research. To find out, the University
of Toronto, Simula Research Laboratory, and the National Research
Council of Canada have launched an online survey in conjunction
with "American Scientist" magazine. If you have 20 minutes to take
part, please go to:

Thanks in advance for your help!
